Abstract:
Provided are systems and methods for referencing intent-based taxonomies to enable more natural approaches for users to specify problems to be solved, questions to be answered, and other content requests that can be delivered within online communities. In the medical setting, physicians and medical personnel are accustomed to provide medical information and ask questions of other physicians in the form of a narrative which can be organized around medical cases. Intuitive user interfaces are provided that facilitate definition of intent during case generation and case searching. Linking UI displays and narrative data structures associated with intent information can enable definition and navigation of intent-based models of the cases. Intent-based models can reflect standardize concepts (e.g., medical diagnoses and medical concept ontologies) facilitating their navigation based on intent. Further, the intent-based models of cases can include additional close-ended selections in the UI to further interact with intent-based models of cases.
